The Red River has dropped over two feet and is now at 38.8 feet which is still 20 feet above flood stage. Now that the river has dropped two feet, they are now letting some people back into their homes and neighborhoods. So just as things are looking up, what you see in these pictures is what we are receiving now. We could get possibly 8 inches of snow before Wednesday.
We have the Coast Guard here that have actually rescued people by airboat and helicopter. People are still in their houses surrounded by water fighting to save their homes. We have towns that are almost completely shut off from the rest of the world.
With all this snow the river will definetly come up again. They are expecting the river to crest again in April when all this snow starts to melt. At one point a few days ago we had no snow.
